good week

it was a nice week back home. all i pretty much did was sleep a ton. without having a job, which is great by the way, i have been able to relax and play nhl2004 alot. i did some fun stuff though. i got to hang out with jen, rahim, jungo and scott right when i got back. i have played alot of hockey with the fury, the venom, and a mix of people on wednesday night. i went to the golden spike on friday night with alot of people and drank, then followed that up by visiting the casino with hilmi, styner, and patrick. i made 35 bucks, haha, all thanks to hilmis excellent coaching. by the way, don't play slots, they suck. then saturday night i went to steves house and won every game of nhl with both andrew wasik and jimmy as my partners. however, above all of this, the most important thing i did was on thursday. i had the chance to go to the childrens hospital and visit William Ataya, a family friend who is like a younger brother to me. he has had some bad luck and was not doing to well, but when i saw him on thursday he was doing well. he remembered who i was, was very responsive with questions we asked him, and has improved. he is being the fighter we all know he is and pulling through. my thoughts and prayers have been with him since i got back and i am glad to say he is getting so much better. keep fighting brother, we will be there to take you home soon. can't wait to build that laptop with you.

back home

well it feels good to be back home. i arrived home around 5:30 this morning after being up for 25 hours straight and driving for about 18. the drive was ok. from san diego to portland it was awesome. then it rained and was dark and got muggy. no fun at all. but i am home and thats all that matters. since i am home i am entertaining all phone calls cause i wanna hang with everyone. hopefully our video gets done soon and you can all witness the fun we had. anyway, i have a hockey game and have to go, thanx to everyone who kept me company in san diego over msn, much appreciated. until next time this is spiro, outtie.

back from anaheim

hey everyone,

i just got back from a 4 days stay in anaheim with rice, andrew, mike, colin, nadeem and rami. we arrived on monday in time to catch the end of the tampa calgary game 4. we chilled for the night.
Tuesday we woke up bright and early to hit up a nice day of surfing. we ended up having a fun day of surfing and swimming, played a wicked game of beach football, which team lebanon(me,andrew,rami and his cousin taj) won. that night rami, nadeem, rice, colin and myself went to the anaheim angels-boston red sox baseball game which the angels won 7-6. it lasted forever (over 3 and a half hours) but was a ton of fun. not only did the angels win, but we got free mini bats as we left the game. we ended up back at the hotel and again drank some beers.
Wednesday was by far the funest day i have had down here. we went to the best place ever, six flags. man was it wicked!! we went on all the coasters except for 2, and had such an awesome time. best part was rice and i devised a scheme to sneak his video camera on the rides, so we have wicked footage of a first person view of all the roller coasters, it worked out perfectly. i have to officially say me and rice are the sneaky kings, haha. that night we went to red lobster for dinner, then back to the hotel for some tv and much needed r and r.
then this morning we woke up and are now back in san diego. overall a fun 4 days in anaheim. this is the last update til i get back to vancouver as i leave here on saturday morning. i look forward to seeing you all again.
spiro outtie.......
